Leigh Fibers, one of the world's leading processors of textile waste and fiber by-products, is always an active buyer and seller, and its processing capacity is adequate for any need. Much of its activity is exporting and importing. Founded in Boston in 1922, Leigh was an affiliate of a well known British cotton waste company, John Leigh, Ltd. In the 1920's and 1930's Leigh grew to be an important merchant and processor of cotton waste with extensive importing and exporting activities, with several offices overseas. Leigh Textile Company operated plants in the Fall River and New Bedford, Massachusetts area for the processing of cotton waste. In 1948, the owners of Leigh Textile Company started a new, separate company, Leigh Textile, Ltd., in Montreal, Quebec, and this company is a leading processor and merchant in textile wastes and fiber by-products in Canada. As the US textile industry moved to the South, Leigh closed its New England plants and opened a state-of-the-art reprocessing plant in Spartanburg, South Carolina. This plant opened in 1961 and has continued to grow and stay current with modern technology. Today, it is the largest textile waste and by-product reprocessing company in North America. Leigh's quality and consistency has earned it the reputation of being the best supplier in the eyes of its customers. During 1998, Leigh Fibers was awarded membership in ATMI's "Quest For The Best" safety and health program and South Carolina's elite "Environmental Excellence Program" for their continuing commitment to improving workplace safety and preserving our environment. Leigh's vision is to be the preferred supplier and customer of textile by-products and a great place to work.Leigh Fibers Address
